The informational re-interpretation of the basic laws of the mechanics exploiting the Landauer principle is suggested. When a physical body is in rest or it moves rectilinearly with the constant speed, zero information is transferred; thus, the informational affinity of the rest state and the rectilinear motion with a constant speed is established. Inertial forces may be involved in the erasure/recording of information. The analysis of the minimal Szilard thermal engine as seen from the noninertial frame of references is carried out. The Szilard single-particle minimal thermal engine undergoes isobaric expansion relative to accelerated frame of references, enabling the erasure of 1 bit of information. The energy Δ spent by the inertial force for the erasure of 1 bit of information is estimated as Δ Q ≅ 5 3 k B T ¯ , which is larger than the Landauer bound but qualitatively is close to it. The informational interpretation of the equivalence principle is proposed: the informational content of the inertial and gravitational masses is the same.
提出了利用兰道尔原理对力学基本定律进行信息重新诠释的方法。当一个物理物体静止或匀速直线运动时，传递的信息为零；因此，建立了静止状态与匀速直线运动状态的信息亲和性。惯性力可能参与信息的擦除/记录过程。对从非惯性参考系观察到的最小西拉德热机进行了分析。西拉德单粒子最小热机相对于加速参考系进行等压膨胀，从而能够擦除1比特信息。估计惯性力擦除1比特信息所消耗的能量ΔQ≅5/3kBT̅，它大于兰道尔极限，但在定性上与之接近。提出了等效原理的信息诠释：惯性质量和引力质量的信息内容相同。
